Hi WTA is the purpose of mesh wifi is if upstairs is getting the full 100mbps internet speed and if downstairs only getting 10mbps, with mesh wifi downstairs should get 100mbps too???
Bcs i saw someone mention b4 mesh his downstairs wifi only get 10mbps but when get mesh wifi it increase to 30mbps?? I thought with mesh whole house should be getting the full 100mbps internet speed? |

QUOTE(ks1230 @ Nov 21 2020, 08:48 PM) Technically yes but it depends on other factor as well.. what is the signal strength of your existing wifi connection downstairs? bcs the way the salesperson upsale it to me mesh would give 100mbps for my whole down stairs which currently only can get 10-30 mbps depending where you at down stairs... Mesh wifi will improve the speed of your wifi but by how much would still depends on a lot of other factor.  If it only helps by a bit than what is the difference between mesh with the cheap wifi booster thing that some people are selling??? |

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Nov 21 2020, 09:29 PM) It depends the specs and how you setup the mesh WiFi. I believe the basic Deco M5 from TP-Link can provide whole home 5Ghz up to 100Mbps easily. QUOTE(ks1230 @ Nov 21 2020, 09:37 PM) Mesh is definitely capable of giving you 100mbps but like i said before it would still depends on a lot of other factor. (for example position of all your mesh node and even your house layout) thanks for replying, so the mesh unifi is selling should be good enough to solve my downstairs problem.Mesh would definitely help if your wifi strength downstairs is very weak currently. I would assume the wifi booster that you are referring to is a wifi repeater. A repeater would mostly cut you speed by half even if it is in a perfect environment but a mesh wont.  |
